Area of Significance: museum

The Hartford House is nominated to the National Register under Criterion A – Exploration/Settlement and Criterion C - Architecture. The house got its name from the steamer that ran aground on a sand bar near an early settlement that would become Manhattan. The Hartford House was one of ten prefabricated houses that accompanied the members of the Cincinnati and Kansas Land Company to the Kansas Territory in 1855. First owned by one of the town founders, Andrew Meade, in 1883 the house was moved to a permanent location at 523 Colorado Street south of downtown Manhattan. The house was reconstructed in 1974 on newly-acquired land on Claflin Road that would become the new home of the Riley County Historical Society and Museum. Like its salvage from Colorado Street, the structure was reassembled by a team led by Dr. Charles L. Hall of Kansas State University’s College of Architecture. The House is a rare example of a mid-nineteenth century prefabricated house and the work of Cincinnati firm Hinkle, Guild and Company interpreting one of the few housing options available to Manhattan’s earliest settlers.

Ingraham, Jesse, House
1724 Fairchild AvenueManhattan (Riley County)
Listed in National Register Jan 8, 2014
Architect: Unknown
Area of Significance: domestic
Architectural Style(s): Vernacular
Thematic Nomination: Late 19th Century Vernacular Stone Houses in Manhattan, KS
The Jesse Ingraham House was nominated to the National Register as part of the Late 19th Century Vernacular Stone Houses in Manhattan multiple property nomination for its local significance in the areas of community planning and development and architecture. Ingraham, a native of New York, moved to Kansas in 1856 shortly after the territory was opened for settlement. He took up residence on 160 acres along Wild Cat Creek northwest of Manhattan near Keats, where he and his family lived for ten years before moving closer to Manhattan. Ingraham's relocation and construction of this stone residence in 1867 coincides with the tremendous growth of Manhattan immediately after the Civil War and the initial development of Bluemont College northwest of the city. The house, an example of the gable-front-and-wing property type, was built in stages beginning in 1867 as a gable-front house with a later intersecting wing added in 1885. As early as 1871, Ingraham began transferred parts of his land to the college. What began as Ingraham's farm eventually became a thriving 20th century neighborhood - primarily serving the college - within just a few decades. The house is a good example of well-built vernacular stone building built in phases and is significant for its representation of the evolution of residential architecture in Manhattan.
